Man loses house following Kickstarter success

I was under the impression that Kickstarter was about raising funds with no guaranteed return on expectations or even if the project will come to fruition. I.E. There's a large amount of trust involved.

Lately, it seems, the comments are leaning more and more toward an ambiance of an actual sales page rather than a fundraiser. I'm seeing more of these in common with Amazon product reviews.

Pity.
